“Surrender Guarantees Victory” John: Week 16 (John 12:20-26)

Is there someone in your life that you have been negatively affected by? Work this week in prayer and petition to find forgiveness for them. If they are not a believer, pray for Jesus to find a way into their lives…possibly through you. Also, consider ways in your life today that you have been seeking a better life, a big win, or victory over something. Then ask yourself if your method is that of the Bible’s teaching, or of your pride and desire. Consider how you could apply one of today’s ironic truths to the situation, and see if turning the situation over to God doesn’t turn out to be the path to victory.
